Odds: Oddsmakers from online sports book Bodog have made the Diamondbacks –110 money line favorites over the Brewers, who are +104 on the ML. The over/under total for tonight’s game is currently 8.5 runs.
Pitching Matchup: Zack Greinke will take on Ian Kennedy in tonight’s pitching matchup. The former AL Cy Young winner Greinke has a 7-3 record but his ERA has ballooned to 5.04 and he hasn’t won a start in his last four outings. Meanwhile, Kennedy has been suburb this year for the D-Backs while compiling a 10-3 record with a 3.39 ERA. He has won his last two starts.
Public Betting: Of the nearly 3,000 wagers placed on tonight’s game, 52% of MLB public bettors favor the Diamondbacks at –110.
MLB Free Pick: Take Milwaukee. According to latest MLB trends, the Brewers are 8-1 in their last nine road games against the Diamondbacks, including 2-0 over the last two nights. They’re also 10-3 in Greinke’s last 13 starts and 8-2 in his last 10 starts when the total is set at 7.0-8.5. The Diamondbacks are just 1-4 in their last five games against the NL Central and 1-4 in their last five versus a team with a winning record. Greinke hasn’t pitched well of late but the Brewers should mash again at the hitter-friendly Chase Field and leave ‘Zona having won three of four games.
